A documentary film that gives voice to New Yorkers seeking to improve their communities through natural gas production

Message from the Director of Gas Odyssey

Since the premiere of Gas Odyssey in 2010, the world of energy has moved forward. Shale gas plays are providing jobs, hope, and growth in small towns and big cities all across the United States. As Pennsylvania and Ohio, Texas and Louisiana prosper, New York’s moratorium on high volume, hydraulic fracturing keeps this state and its citizens in a time warp.

2013 is just around the corner. When will the moratorium on high volume, hydraulic fracturing be lifted? Will we soon see a New York that embraces its resources or will the promise of the Marcellus Shale continue to be just over the horizon for Upstate landowners and communities?
